Add keepass-like autotype

[TinfoilSubmarine]

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I've thought about implementing such a feature, but always lost motivation because the default autotype (wofi-pass --autotype) met >90% of the scenarios where I wanted to autotype. Have you had a chance to try this? What are the shortcomings?

I did try this, but never ended up using it, because it apparently expects a "password: " field, but the first line is always already the password. If I added "password:" then it would mess up other pass utilities since they will always also read that prefix. Meaning that it would always just error on line 103 and exit.

I would like to see the following just because it will cause the least problems:

myexamplepassword
username: this has any prefix
somevalue: foobarbazcruz
otpauth://somestuff
autotype: {password}{TAB}{username}{DELAY 1000}{OTP}{TAB}{somevalue}{ENTER}

What do you think? It handles cases like gitea equally as well as Paypal (which is hiding the password prompt on another page which it redirects to after a few seconds)

Hmm, this sounds like a bug. Are you using the latest version? I just pushed a commit that fixed a possibly related issue. And it does not expect a password: field, it should be using the same scheme you are using (password at top).

I like this idea, I'll look into how hard it would be to implement. A quality pull request would also be welcome; after all, Hacktoberfest is coming up... :)

I would love to do this in lua, if you accept the inclusion of lua stuff into your project. it would make things much much easier ;)

Hey, sorry for just getting around to responding to this, your other issue reminded me. I haven't been using this project for a little while now, but I would be OK with anything you are willing to contribute.

parse.lua.txt

This is my current version of the parser. I suggest you just use this as inspiration for a reimplementation in bash. I'm just not really familiar with that.
Some features are also not fully complete, as seen in the comments. I had no clue how to use pass-otp with a supplied link, so I just left that out for you to add once you implement this (hopefully)

I hope this is at least somewhat useful to you!
